Uninteresting Topics: Some topics in
the course book may not be interesting to
the learners and they need to be changed
to get learners’ attention. Teachers can
search
the other sources such as
newspaper, magazine or internet for the
more interesting and up-to-date topics.
Adapting textbook with too much
contents
Teachers may considerably skip some
unimportant items in the textbooks.
Alternatively, they may select to do the
following:
1. Set textbook exercises or some part
of exercises for homework/
scrap the
workbook
2. Turn the book activities into
communication games, e.g. turn readings
into jigsaw readings by getting students to
read half of the text. Let each one do
exercise and compare their answers.
Listening and other kinds of exercises can
be done similarly.
3. After
students have done a few
questions in an exercise, teachers can
check their
answers without waiting for
them to finish it.
4. Select only some questions in an
exercise for students to do. Make sure
that the selected questions cover all the
points they have learned.
5.
While teaching, teachers can skip
some parts but need to tell the students
why, e.g. it is too easy or it is not very
practical or useful, etc.
6. Make
sure to allot time for each
activity properly. Give more time to more
important or difficult topics.
